erou* Chattahoochee Doe* Not
Often Give Up It* Dead.
From the current issue of the Blake*
y ly Reporter we take the following:
“The scene of the wreck at the
Chattahoochee river bridge on the
Central of Georgia railway was visited
last week by thousands of people, all
anxious to watch the work of raising
the wrecked locomotive from its
watery bed and all praying that the
bodies of the unfortunate victims
might be found.
"The first wish was gratified, but
the latter hope was doomed to disap
pointment, for the treacherous Chat
tahoochee, true to its record, failed to
give up its dead.
"When tho engine plunged off the
end of the trestle it went head down
and struck on the marl bank, then
turned a complete somersault into the
swift current. What became of the
•men in the cab can never be definitely
I known, and conjecture Is useless.
Certain it is that they were not found
when the engine was hoisted up on
Friday and placed on a barge. And
hope died in the hearts of waiting
relatives and friends as piece after
piece of the wreckage was located by
tho diver and lifted out by the power
ful cranes. This part of the work was
Unuhed Sunday afternoon when the
;ender was brought up in sections.
"Men in boats have constantly pa
roled the river for miles down the
jtream since the accident occurred,
>ut at the time this was written no
race of the bodies bad been found. It
s a remarkable fact that not more
han 60 per cent, of the persons
Irowned in the Chattahoochee river
lave been recovered. It 1* considered
>y boatmen to be one of the most de-
jeptlve and treachers streams in the
South.
"The main channel at this point Is
►etween the largo central cylinder on
'rhlch the draw section of the bridge
i ests and the Alabama shore, but
1 rhen the river i9 high, as it was at
<his time, a powerful current sets In
1 etween the cylinder and the Georgia
1>ank, and It was into this rushing
1 orrent that the engine and its occu
pants were hurled. Whether the men
Remained iq the cab until it struck the
t and went to the bottom, or
r they Jumped or were thrown
can only be imagined. Tho
<hances are that the bodies are far
^ iwn the stream, and strict watches j
1 111 be kept by the boatmen and spe-
C|il patrols.”
OATH A PRESIDENT TAKE8.
The- Mam(#r irT’whiir the Oath I*
Given at Inauguration*.
The oath of office taken by the in
coming president qf the United States
is the shortest and simplest required
of any ruler on earth. It is prescribed
by the Constitution, and is as follows:
"I do solemnly swear (or affirm)
that I will faithfully execute the office
of president of the United States,
and, to tho beat of my ability, protect,
preserve and defend the Constitution
of the United States."
This oath is slowly repeated by the
president-elect after the chief Justice
of the supreme court, In the presence
of the public, upon a platform erected
In front of the main door on the east
ern side of the capltol. While the
oath is being repeated tho president
elect and the chief justice face each
other and hold with their right hands,
between them, a Bible, furnished by
some person interested or especially
procured for the occasion, which be
comes the property of the president
after it has been appropriately in
scribed and sealed by the chief clerk
of the supreme court. President
Cleveland, at both inaugurations, took
the oath upon a little red pocket Bi
ble which was given him by his moth
er when he loft home as a boy. Pres
ident Harrison used a Bible that had
been presented to him by a Sunday
school class In Indianapolis.
At the close of the oath the pres
ident-elect bows his head and kisses
the open page of the book, and it has
been customary for him or for his
wife or a friend to select some appro
priate passage at which the book
shall bo opened and the verse upon
which he shall press his lips. Some
times, when those interested forget
or neglect to choose a passage, the
Bible is opened at random, but the
clerk of the supreme court is always
careful to note and mark the exact
place where the lips touched the page.
The verse that Gen. Grant kissed
at hia second inauguration Is found
in the eleventh chapter of Isaiah, and
reads as follows:
"And the spirit of the Lord shall
rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom
and understanding, tho spirit of coun
sel and might, the spirit of knowledge
and of the fear of the Lord, and shall
make him of quick understanding in
the fear of the Lord.”
It is understood that Rev. Dr. New
man, at that time pastor of the Metro
politan Methodist church of Washing
ton, furnished tho Bible for that oc
casion and marked the passage that
he wanted Gen. Grant to kiss.—Chi

PERMIT BAIL.
Greene and'Gaynor Will Have to Re
main in Jail.
Montreal, March 7.—Messrs. Gay-
nor and Greene, who are wanted by
the United States government on
charges of fraud in connection with
the Savannah river improvements,
were before Magistrate La Fontaine
the extradition commissioner, today,
the question of ball being discussed
Mr. Taschereau, counsel for tho ac
cused men, filed an objection to the
Jurisdiction of the magistrate. The
latter then agreed to a postponement
of tha cese until March 14, in order
to get witnesses here.
After hearing arguments this after
noon, Extradition Commissioner La
Fontaine announced that In his opin
ion tho Dominion statutes did not
grant him power to accept ball from
the prisoners.
Judge La Fontaine refused to allow
the prisoners to be given Into the care
of Detective Carpenter, as suggested
by Attorney Taschereau. Governor
Valee, of the Jail, was In the court
room, and Gaynor and Greene were
turned over to him, and they wero
driven to prison.
The case was remanded until March
14 to allow the prosecution to prepare
its case. It is not unlikely that an
application will be made to a superior
court judge for a ruling on Judge La
Fontaine’s decision that he has not
the power to accept bail.
Fit and Style.
THE LADIE8 favor painting their
churches, and therefore we urge ev
ery minister to remember we give a
liberal quantity of tho Longman
Martlnes Paint toward the painting,
Wears and covers like gold.
Don’t pay |1.50 a gallon for Lin
seed Oil (wortu 50 cents) which you
do when you buy other paints In s
can with a paint label on It.
8 & 6 make 14, therefore when you
wont fourteen gallons of pslut, buy
only eight of L. & M, and mix six
gallons of pure Linseed Oil with it,
and thus get paint at loss thsn 81.20
per gallon.
Many houses are well painted with
four gallons of L. & M. and three
gallons of Linseed Oil, mixed there
with.
These celebrated Paints are sold by
B. P. Whittington.
Sir Clinton Dawkins, tho head of
the London branch of J. P. Morgan
& Co., receives an annual salary of
2250,000. In addition ho realizes a
certain percentage of tho profits of
the Arm, which during somo years
havo amounted to a larger sum than
his guaranteed salary.
There are some things which can’t be improved.
One of these things is the “Queen Quality” Shoe for
women. You can make it more elab< irate, you can
decorate it, embellish it, use costly materials and ali
that. But for $100 a pair
^ ; ou Cannot Makea Better Shoe 1
I Than “Queen Quality,” having regard solely to the
two great essentials of FIT and STYLE. This means
that mechanically it is perfect. As for its appearance,
the fact that one hundred thousand women choose it
instantly above all other shoes would 9eem to indicate
that it is attractive. Why don’t you go so far as to
try on a pair the next time you go to the store. It
costs nothing to see them fit your foot Boots $3.00.
Oxfords $2.50. Special Styles 50-cents extra. Fast
